London - (U P) - Forty-two years ago Robert Fairchild Sharp came to the British Museum. On Dec. 31, he will retire as keeper of the Printed Books of the Museum after several years from around a million copies to the 3,000,000 which are now housed on the 46 miles of shelves.
Before Sharp steps out of office he will edit the first sections of this book, which include a chapter on entaglio, when completed, will comprise 160 volumes of 500 pages each.
The Museum employs 40 ex-Service men to dust the books. Each book is dusted about twice a year.
Freshmen Work Longer Than Advanced Students
Freshmen rank first in amount of time devoted to studies, sophomores second, seniors third, and juniors fourth. A total of 168 undergraduate-student committee at the University of Chicago which invests in the training of the undergraduate spends his time. Questionnaires were returned by 1,186 of the 3,053 undergraduate students.
It was discovered also that the average student devotes about 36 hours per week to his studies and does not ranked appreciably below the average male student, and the time devoted to study by fraternity students was better. In contrast, when being the case with outside activities and social affairs, Approximately one-quarter spent as much time on outside activities as on their
In the freshman year the superior students among the women outnumbered those among the men, this order being a natural part of the dual students who resorted themselves to be living under strain because of lack of time were computers who lost between ten and fifteen days traveling to and from the university.
The committee, after this investigation suggests that for the average undergraduate student, six hours per week should be devoted to studies, four to serious reading not included in courses, seven to exercise and social affairs, and two to religion. This allows 65 hours for sleep, leisure and a week for meals and outside activities.

--at that time was thinking pretty largely of a source for relief in other countries. And so the first Christ mas program was instituted.
After his graduation he receives a position in the Westinghouse Elec department laboratory in Pittsburgh, Pa. He works as a junior party developing sound pictures. His job was to develop the Kerr Co. which was to be used to photograph TVs and cameras.

"There arose the idea of a voluntary gift, and one by one, the other features of the program were added, to the program in a pageant, the serenades, the lighted pine, etc. The feeling that the gift should be voluntary was so strong that they would be burned and the most generous givers with a banner were voted down and large candies were substituted, with the idea that they would be burned and the majority of any group. The urge to this extreme point of view was a natural reaction from the high stakes of the event during and immediately after the war.

Then, says Dean Dyer, as the student need in Europe became lescute after post-war reconstruction programs of later years were aime at other projects, such as a foreign student loan fund on the campus and a student loan fund, which is the project for the campaign next week.
"It all looks very beautiful from here, and I know my heart will thrill with a report in the Kansan of the candies, the semenades, the famous faculty basketball game, Dean Deyon concludes in his letter.
"I trust that the hearts of Kanaan students are given an opportunity to succeed, and that someone somewhere will be glaidded by their kindness."
"From 1,300 miles away the Christmas tradition seems to be one of the finest things in the life of the University of Kansas. As a Kansa editor said many years ago, who are the recipients of your gift, will think of you and the friendly Jayhawk University."
